Elon Musk acted like a ‘little baby’ and was ‘almost in tears’ on Tesla’s ‘terrible’ earnings call, analyst says

• Financial analyst Kevin Paffrath criticized Elon Musk’s comments on Tesla’s recent earnings call.
• He said Musk blamed the EV maker’s struggles on economic factors instead of “coming up with a plan.”
• Tesla’s third-quarter results fell short of analysts’ expectations.

It’s now clear that Tesla’s third-quarter earnings call on Wednesday didn’t exactly go as expected.  

CEO Elon Musk acted like “a little baby,” financial analyst and YouTuber Kevin Paffrath recently told Yahoo Finance. He also described the call as “terrible” and said Musk was “almost in tears” at one point.
